By eliminating extra skin and repositioning the nipple, a breast lift Dubai, also known as a mastopexy, involves raising and reshaping the breast tissue. This contributes to giving the breasts a more youthful-looking but natural appearance.
Mastopexy can be especially helpful for women who have drooping breasts that have lost volume as a consequence of weight loss, pregnancy, nursing, or the effects of ageing. In order to restore symmetry, a breast lift can also contour the breasts.
A breast reduction, which reduces the size of the breasts, or a breast augmentation with implants or fat transfer, which adds more volume, are complimentary treatments that can be done in conjunction to a breast lift.
BENEFITS OF A BREAST LIFT
A breast lift comes with its own unique range of benefits:
Lifts drooping breasts – A breast lift raises sagging breasts, giving them a fuller appearance and firmer feeling.
Creates a youthful, natural-looking appearance – A breast lift makes the breasts appear perkier, which results in a younger-looking upper body with better contouring.
Restores symmetry – The operation can be used to make the chest more symmetrical by altering the form of the breasts.
Medical issues that are brought on by drooping breasts, such as skin irritation under the skin folds, may be lessened by a breast lift.
Improved mental wellness – Patients who get a breast lift may feel more confident in their bodies and have higher self-esteem as a result of the procedure’s focus on cosmetic and functional issues.
More clothing options – Patients frequently discover that following their breast lift, they feel more at ease in bathing suits and other form-fitting apparel.
TYPES OF BREAST LIFTS
Depending on the size of your breasts, the level of drooping, and the suppleness of your skin, Dr. Leonard will perform one of four types of breast lifts during your procedure:
Crescent Lift
For minor sagging. Single ‘half moon’-shaped incision around top edge of areola. Approximately 2cm lift of the nipple only. Minimal scarring.
Periareolar (Donut) Lift
For medium-level lift of the nipple, approximately 2-3cm. Incision around the whole areola. Scarring hidden by natural colouring of the nipple.
Vertical (Lollipop) Lift
For medium-level lift and more extensive reshaping of the breast tissue. Incision around areola and downward vertical incision to the breast fold. Two scars left on the breast.
Inverted-T (Anchor) Lift
For severe breast sagging. Three incisions used around areola, vertical to breast fold and across the breast fold. Can achieve dramatic changes in the shape and positioning of the breasts. More significant scarring.
EXPERIENCE
Depending on the intricacy of the needed surgical methods, breast lift surgery might take anywhere from two to three hours to accomplish. Prior to administering anaesthesia, Dr. Leonard will mark the incisions that will be made around your breasts so that you are aware of your specific treatment strategy.
One of the four methods described above is used to make an incision after an anaesthetic has been delivered. Dr. Leonard then eliminates extra skin, elevates the nipple, reshapes the breast tissue, and minimises the size of the areola, depending on the kind of breast lift. Finally, the wounds are closed with stitches while the remaining skin is pulled together and tightened.
Sagging or drooping breasts, also known as breast ptosis, can cause a number of physical and emotional problems, including:
A breast lift may be required if you have developed saggy or droopy breasts due to pregnancy, white gloss or the ageing process. Sagging breasts with nipples that point downwards are suitable for correction with a breast lift.
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your sagging breasts and you have developed a loss of confidence, a breast lift could be a good treatment option.
Breast lift surgery can help women restore their breasts to a more youthful appearance that appears perkier and sits higher up on the chest wall.
Breast augmentation with implants involves the insertion of silicone implants into the breasts to enhance breast volume. A breast lift is designed to tighten and lift breast tissue to achieve a perkier appearance without increasing breast volume.
A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the breast tissue and nipples.
Sometimes, the excess skin and tissues are removed to make your breasts appear perky during a breast lift procedure. This can cause a slight variation in the size of your breasts. As a result, your breasts can appear smaller, but the difference is unnoticeable.
No, it doesn’t. If you want to go bigger, you can get a breast augmentation with the implants.
Opting for breast lift surgery is the best way to tighten the skin on your breasts.
Your eligibility for breast lift surgery will be thoroughly evaluated at your appointment with Dr. Leonard. In general, a breast lift may be appropriate for you if you satisfy the following requirements:
